I originally thought WARN_ON_ONCE() just to get the distro automatic error handling involved, but it would probably be a big problem for the people who end up having panic-on-warn or something. So probably just a "make it a big box" thing that stands out, kind of what lockdep etc does with pr_warn("======...====\n"); around the messages.. I don't know if distros have some pattern we could use that would end up being something that gets reported to the user? Linus
